There is nothing quite like homegrown lettuce, and one of our favorites is butterhead lettuce. With a buttery smooth texture and rich flavor, it’s hard to go wrong with a salad that is based off this succulent leafy green. The Bronze Mignonette in particular is ideal for the home garden since it remains small and compact, is slow to bolt, and doesn’t become bitter in the heat. As an added benefit, the bronze-tinged leaves add healthy antioxidants as well as extra color to your plate!
